Hi.

I recently tried marking a message in one of my (non-inbox) folders as
unseen.  A bit later (I can't remember if it was within the same exmh
session), I read the message.  Things seemed to be fine, except each
time I restarted exmh after that, the folder was again noted as having 
unseen messages, even if I read every message in the folder again.
After so reading, the folder was no longer noted as having unseen messages,
yet was so marked again when I restarted.

Poking around a bit, I noticed a line in my Mail/.exmhcontext:

atr-unseen-<path-to-folder>:

No number appeared after the colon.  I tried removing this line, and the
problem seems to have gone away.
